21 | no physical death? not sinners? | Eph 4:9 | PDAL | 184211 | ||
Hi stj......We need to clear some things up.I never said we don't sin.I said we are not sinners.Maybe this will help.John 3:6 says that which is born of the flesh is flesh,and that which is born of the spirit is spirit.First and foremost we are a spirit,we have a soul,and live in a body.This single aspect that man is a spirit is so interwoven throughtout Paul's writings that failure to recongnize it has kept many from grasping the rest of Paul's revelation......For Paul the spirit of man is the real man.He uses the term"heart"meaning the core or principle part in referring to it(Rom.2:28,29;Eph.3:16,17).He uses the term"inward man"in referring to it as in 2Cor.4:16...though our outward man perish,yet the inward man is renewed day by day.We know from Rom.2:28,29 that the term"inward man"refers to the heart or spirit,so the term"inward man" here refers to the spirit.Paul uses the term"I" or"we" in referring to his own spirit in 2Cor.4:16-18;1Cor.14;14;He uses the pronoun "you" when he speaks of other's spirits as in Eph.2:1"....you hath he quickened,who were dead..."We know this refers to their spirit because these Ephesians weren't dead physically,but spirituall before they were saved.In Eph.4:24 he calls the reborn spirit the new man.Our spitits have been recreated,been made one with Christ Himself through the impartation of His Life into us.We are new creations on the inside,the rightousness of God.All that is in Christ is now in our spirits where the union between us and Chris has been formed.What has to be dealt with now is our minds.Our minds need to be renewed.Rom.12:2.be transformed by the renewing of yoour mind.Our mind has not directly been changed in the new birth like your spirit has.It must undergo a process of renewal,there must be a change in the way our minds think.This happens as it is subjected to what is true of us in our spirit......2Cor.5:16 says to know no one after the flesh.There is a big difference between your self and your flesh.We are not to identify with our actions.We identify with who we are in spirit,because we are spirit......Be Blessed....PDAL. | ||||||
22 | God allowing things in our lives | 2 Tim 3:16 | PDAL | 194039 | ||
Hey Doc, Are you saying that God will or does use cancer to conform us to the image of his son.Why would God put something like cancer,which we've been redeemed from back on us.The whole purpose of Jesus's death was to remove the curse and everything that went along with it. |

24 | SOUL AND SPIRIT | Heb 4:12 | PDAL | 183166 | ||
Yes.Look up 1Thess.5;23 Man is a three fold being.First and foremost man is a spirit, his most inner part.He has a soul which consists of your intellect,emotions,and will.And he lives in a body.It is your spirit that is in union with GOD. | ||||||

Hi Doc. You said you have a sinful nature.I don't believe you do as a believer.Our nature was changed the moment we accepted Jesus as our Savior,we may be double minded,but we have the same nature as Jesus.We went from a sinful nature to a rightousness nature.Our spirits were changed at the new birth,but our minds were not it has to be renewed.We have been taken out of Adam and placed IN CHRIST.What changed,our nature,we are no longer children of the dark,we are now children of light.We are to live out of this new nature.The old man,our old nature, is dead and buried. |

Hi BradK and Doc. Spiritual death came into the world through Adam and passed upon all men.Romans5:17death reigned as a king over all men. Spitiually dead men still have a spirit,or rather is a spirit.His spirit has the nature of death.Spiritual death is a nature. We know that eternal life ,spirit life,is a nature,the God kind of life,is a nature.It is the life,the nature of God.Ephesians4:18 calls it the life of God,which the unbeliever is alienated from,2 Peter 1:4 calls it the devine nature.God is a Spirit and the nature of his being ia life.Well, if life is a nature,then death must be a nature.Rightousness was not just imputed to us,it has been imparted to us. Let us locate sin,Romans6:12 NKJV.Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body,that you should obey it in its lusts.Sin is not in your spirit ,it is in you mortal body,it is in your mind.You are a spirit,that has a soul or mind,that lives in a body,a threefold being. |

Romans 7;5,20,23says sin was in our bodily members,Ephesians2:3 says it was in our minds.After Paul said in Ephesians2;1 you were dead he went on to sayin verse 3 you were by nature the children of wrath.For Paul the spirit of man is the real man and that was changed at the new birth.Name change in scripture denotes change in nature. Thanks for your responses I learn alot from both of you. PDAL |

Hi Doc and BradK, Sorry I couldn't respond sooner,I've been extremely busy this week,I have a full time job,elder in my church and starting up a new fellowship in a neighboring town,so please bare with me if it sometimes takes a few days to respond. Doc I would like to respond to you first. Death reigned as king over all men,my mistake,I ment to write because of one man's offence death reined or spread through that one.ROM.5:17 amp.and then verse 19 says because of that many were made that way. Spiritualy dead men still have a spirit.Gen2:17God said the day YOU eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil YOU shall surely die.We know that Adam didn't die physically,because Gen. 5:5 says that he lived 930 years then died.Adam died spiritually.That's the death that was passed on to all men.When God says YOU,He's identifing Adam as a Spirit man ,not a natural man.Adam's disobedience caused a change in his condition in reference to his spirit,Which is our condition until we accept Christ,the change is a spiritual change,death to life John 5:24.Jesus said in John 10:10 I come to give you life.He made us something that we were not,by changing our spiritual condition,from death to life.Jesus ,who knew no sin became sin,He identified with who we were in Adam,who was spiritually dead,which is the sin nature or death nature and it can only produce death.He gave us life to produce life.Every believer is to manifest the life or nature of the son.Even though Adam died spiritually,he still was a threefold being,spirit,soul and body.No it doesn't say that in written words,but it does picture it. BradK Name change in scripture denotes a change in nature is not written in english words either,but I will show you a picture. Abram to Abraham,notice what was added,am was added.God's name is I AM,that I AM.Before Gen.17 he was Abram and produced Ismeal,after Gen17 He became Abraham and produced the promised son Isaac,which is a picture of Christ.What changed him was a encounter with GOD.Abram is a picture of a believer before one accepts Christ and Abraham is a picture of a believer after accepting Christ.Abraham can be looked at as the church giving birth to the nature of the son.

Hi Doc. Death only reins in the natural relm.You are born of the spirit and he who is born of the spirit is spirit.You claim to be IN HIM and I believe you are,but what part of you is in him?IT,S YOU THE SPIRIT that's in union with Christ.It's YOU THE SPIRIT that's seated with Christ in God,that is a present reality.Yes your natural body will die,but YOU THE SPIRIT WILL never die.You are a spirit,not a body.Doctrine will not give you life ,only GOD can give you life.Romans8:24 O wretched man that I am ,who will deliever me from this body of death.... Paul had all the doctrine any man could have,he counted it all as dung,because he wanted to HIM and the power of his resurection.Gal.1:12 For I neither recieved it from man,nor was I taught it,but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.Peter recieved the same thing when in th gospels Jesus asked Peter,who do you say I am?Peter said though art the Christ.Flesh and blood did not reveal that to you ,but my father who is in Heaven revealed it to you ,well done.Peter did not recieve that from any doctrine,it was a revelation from God.More than any thing we need a revelation of the person and work of Jesus Christ.
